Nadir Mothojakan
Calm practical support for life changes
About Nadir
Nadir Mothojakan offers calm, steady support for people facing big life changes. He listens without judgement and helps people find practical ways to manage grief, stress and anxiety. His approach is warm and respectful and aimed at helping clients regain a sense of control.
He has 33 years of experience and holds BACP registration, which means he is recognised by the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy. Nadir draws on a mix of approaches to match the person in front of him rather than following one fixed method.
Background and approach
Sessions focus on clear, manageable steps rather than jargon. People contact him about grief and loss, major life transitions, caring for chronic illness, and workplace or unemployment stress. He also works with issues such as addiction, relationship difficulties, anger, low self-esteem, bipolar and depression.
Other focus areas include attachment concerns, adoption and foster care, ageing, autism spectrum matters and codependency. In practical terms he helps people set boundaries, name and express feelings, and make small changes that add up. That might mean learning new ways to cope with overwhelming emotions or building daily routines that support sleep and eating.
He aims to help each person leave sessions with something they can try between meetings. Nadir offers online sessions and uses whichever therapeutic methods fit the person and problem. He encourages collaboration - clients and he decide together on goals and the best way to reach them.

Sessions & fees
Approaches you can use online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, often called ACT, helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting overwhelmed by them. It focuses on values and small actions that move someone towards a life that matters to them, which can help with grief, anxiety and major life changes.Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current patterns. It supports people who struggle with trust, abandonment worries or ongoing relationship difficulties by exploring those patterns and practising new ways of relating.
Finding the right approach is a joint process. The therapist will discuss your goals and preferences and adapt methods as you go. Sessions are collaborative so you decide together which techniques to keep and which to change.
Online sessions can be scheduled as video calls, phone conversations, live chat or text-based messaging. Video is useful for more in-depth work and non-verbal cues. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is preferred. Live chat and messaging suit quick updates, reflection between sessions or people who find writing easier than speaking.
These options make therapy more flexible around work, caregiving and travel, and let people try different formats to see what fits their routine and comfort.
